Podcasts about Offbeat

On today's OffBeat with Alex Stumpf, Alex digs into one of the biggest unanswered questions on the Pirates roster: catcher. Even after an aggressive offseason, Pittsburgh didn't address a position that remains loaded with uncertainty. Alex breaks down why Joey Bart may be the safest option in the room, why Henry Davis still has real upside despite the offensive concerns, why Endy Rodriguez remains one of the biggest wild cards on the roster, and why Rafael Flores is intriguing but still far from a sure thing. This episode gets into the floor vs. ceiling debate, what the Pirates need from Bart offensively, and why this entire position group could swing from weakness to strength depending on how a few major questions are answered.

Paul Skenes took the mound on the international stage and gave Team USA exactly what it needed in a 2-1 win over the Dominican Republic, and now we've got plenty to dig into on Bucco Brew. We're breaking down Skenes' outing, what stood out from his 4.1 innings, and what it meant to watch Oneil Cruz and Gregory Soto on the other side of a game that felt loaded with Pirates ties. We'll also touch on David Bednar's scoreless inning and the bigger picture of how Pirates players and former Pirates showed up in a massive WBC moment. Then we shift back to Bradenton, where the fifth starter battle keeps getting more interesting. Jose Urquidy had a rough day, Mike Clevinger is somehow still in the mix, Hunter Barco continues to make his case, and Carmen Mlodzinski is becoming harder and harder to ignore. After Alex Stumpf's recent breakdown on Off Beat, is Carmen starting to feel like the real answer? *Get your tickets to the April 18th game in the NS9 Group: https://www.gofevo.com/event/Northshore9tailgate0418 Use Promo Code NS930 for 30% off your first order at https://www.defer.coffee Use Promo Code NS9 for 30% off your first order at https://www.gritily.com Use Promo Code NORTHSHORENINE for $20 off your first order at https://www.seatgeek.com LIKE and SUBSCRIBE with NOTIFICATIONS ON if you enjoyed the show!

Alex Stumpf takes a deep dive into one of the Pirates' most interesting spring storylines: Carmen Mlodzinski's case for the fifth starter job. Alex breaks down why the 2025 starting experiment fell apart, what changed in Mlodzinski's pitch mix, and why his splitter could be the key to handling left-handed hitters this time around. He also looks at the bigger rotation picture, the other names in the mix, and why Pittsburgh may have more to gain by giving Mlodzinski another real shot to start.

Tonight on NS9LIVE!, we're building our full prediction for the Pittsburgh Pirates' Opening Day 26-man roster. Jim is bringing out the Jimalytics to break down every spot on the roster - catchers, infielders, outfielders, starting pitchers, and relievers - using spreadsheets and logic to decide who's making the trip north and who could be left on the outside looking in. Before that, we'll welcome Alex Stumpf back to the show to tease the launch of his brand-new North Shore Nine weekday podcast, Off Beat with Alex Stumpf, which officially debuts tomorrow. Alex's new show will deliver a quick, beat-writer-style Pirates perspective every weekday in a 15-minute format, and while he's with us, we'll talk a little Pirates ball as well. And of course, we'll bring another edition of the NS9 Really Stupid Question segment. Opening Day is getting closer, roster decisions are heating up, and we've got plenty to sort through tonight on NS9LIVE!

In the debut episode of OffBeat with Alex Stumpf, Alex dives right into the biggest Pirates storyline of the moment: Konnor Griffin. Is the 19-year-old phenom truly forcing his way onto the Opening Day roster, or is the hype getting ahead of the reality? Alex breaks down what he's hearing, what he's seeing, and why Griffin's spring has created a very real conversation about Pittsburgh's future. From the excitement around his talent to the fastball concerns, service-time implications, and possible extension talk, this episode explores every angle of the Pirates' toughest spring decision. If you want a grounded, connected, beat-writer look at the story everyone in Pittsburgh is talking about, this is the place to start.

Many concert venues rely on alcohol sales for revenue, meaning people under age 21 are often left out of shows. Not so at The Off Beat. Portland nonprofit Friends of Noise opened the venue in the Kenton neighborhood last fall and held a grand-opening show headlined by Team Dresch last month.   André Middleton is the executive director of Friends of Noise. Clara Kornelis is a musician and a booker for The Off Beat. They join us to talk about the importance of creating an all-ages space for young performers and live music fans.  

Marc Cox opens Hour 2 with commentary on travel disruptions from the Democrat Schumer shutdown and applauds the NBA for canceling a strip club-themed event. Grover Norquist joins to discuss the impact of Republican tax cuts on affordability, state income tax reductions, and economic perception. Former Missouri Senator John Lamping examines juvenile crime legislation, major local donor influence in St. Charles County races, and spring break's effect on the legislative session. The hour closes with “In Other News,” covering viral videos, bizarre food trends like the ranch milkshake at Great Wolf Lodge, AI heart-monitoring t-shirts, and a New Zealand charity mishap involving weed and cash.

North Shore Nine is excited to announce a new addition to our podcast lineup: Off Beat with Alex Stumpf, launching next week. The new show will bring Pirates fans a fresh daily perspective straight from the ballpark, with Alex delivering reactions, insights, and observations from around the team in a quick, easy-to-listen-to format. Episodes are expected to run around 15 minutes, giving listeners a shorter daily option to fit into their routine while still staying informed on everything happening with the Pirates. During our announcement podcast, Alex said the goal is to make Off Beat part of a Pirates fan's regular day, offering a mix of immediate reactions and informed analysis from someone who is around the team on a daily basis. That is exactly why we are so excited to bring him to North Shore Nine. At NS9, we have always been proud to offer a fan-driven perspective through our live shows, postgame coverage, and podcasts. Adding Alex gives us another layer — a plugged-in, on-the-ground voice that brings a different kind of insight to our audience. For us, this also feels like a natural fit. There is a lot of history here, a lot of mutual respect, and a shared love for talking Pirates baseball. Off Beat is another step forward for North Shore Nine as we continue to grow and give fans more ways to stay connected to the team. The first episode of Off Beat with Alex Stumpf drops next week. Be sure to subscribe to North Shore Nine now so you do not miss it. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Luister hier na die klankopname of op die potgooi-platform van jou keuse of lees die blog-inskrywing hier onder. . . Na-leef gedagte: As-Woensdag — 'n off-beat ritueel deur Pieter Roeloffse “Jesus is an alternative to the dominant ways of the world,  not a supplement to them.”  Eugene Peterson Elke jaar doen die kerk iets vreemd. Ons neem die oorblyfsels van verlede jaar se Palmsondag — die takke waarmee ons “Hosanna!” gesing het — en ons verbrand dit. Die takke wat eens tekens van oorwinning en hoop was, word as. En met daardie as begin ons Lydenstyd. Dit is nie toevallig nie. Dit is teologies briljant. Die ironie van die skare Op Palmsondag stap Jesus Jerusalem binne. Die skare waai palmtakke. Hulle roep “Hosanna! “Prys die Seun van Dawid! Loof Hom wat in die Naam van die Here kom!” (Matt 21:1-11, Mark. 11:1-11; Luk. 19:28-38; Joh. 12:12-19) Hulle verwag 'n Messias wat hul vyande sal oorwin, die regte mag sal herstel, die regte koninkryk sal vestig. 'n Paar dae later is daar weer 'n skare. En hulle roep: “Kruisig Hom! Kruisig Hom.” (Matt 27:15-26, Mark. 15:6-15; Luk. 23:13-25; Joh. 18:39 – 19:16)  Dieselfde stad. Dieselfde fees. Waarskynlik meeste van dieselfde mense. Wat het verander? Jesus het nie by hulle script ingepas nie. Hy het nie mag oorgeneem soos hulle verwag het nie. Hy het nie Rome omver gewerp soos hulle verwag het nie. Hy het nie die soort oorwinning gebring wat hulle wou hê nie. En toe Hy nie inpas by hul verwagtinge nie, draai die skare. Ons is nader aan die skare as wat ons dink. As-Woensdag begin met “Onthou jy is stof” en 'n as-kruis merk op jou voorkop of pols. Hoekom? Omdat ons ook palmtakke dra — ons eie verwagtinge het van hoe God moet werk; hoe verlossing moet lyk. Ons eie planne van die mooi en goeie lewe het. Ons juig maklik vir 'n Jesus wat óns drome bevestig. Maar 'n Jesus wat selfopoffering vra? 'n Koning wat op 'n donkie ry? 'n God wat alle mense liefhet? 'n Messias wat leer en leef “sterf van jou ekkigheid dan kom daar nuwe lewe”? Dis net té anders, té vreemd, té ongemaklik. Die as van Palmsondag-takke herinner ons: selfs ons aanbidding kan soms besoedel wees (vgl. Miga 6:6-8; Amos 5:21-24). 'n Heilige onderbreking Wanneer die palmtakke verbrand word, word triomf in stof verander. Dit nooi ons: Moenie hoop op jou eie namaaksel van God en jou eie weergawe van oorwinning nie. As-Woensdag help ons om eerlik te word oor iets diep in ons harte — ons wil graag hê God moet ons idees, oortuigings en storie versterk — nie dit herskryf nie. Maar Jesus kom nie om ons storie te verbeter nie. Hy kom om 'n ander een te gee: 'n Storie waar die eerste laaste is. Waar mag lyk soos diens. Waar oorwinning deur selfopoffering kom. Waar lewe deur die dood breek. Wanneer die as op ons voorkop in die vorm van 'n kruis geteken word, hou dit Palmsondag en Goeie Vrydag saam. Dit sê: Moenie te vinnig juig nie. Moenie te vinnig veroordeel nie. Moenie dink jy staan buite die skare nie. Dit nooi ons om ons afhanklikheid te erken. Te erken dat God en Sy manier anders is as wat ons graag sou verkies. Te onthou dat God en Sy anderster manier verlossing, vryheid, lewe gee — vir alles en almal! As-Woensdag vra nie: Is jy opgewonde oor Jesus? nie. Dit vra: Sal jy Hom volg wanneer Hy nie in jou verwagtinge pas nie? Sal jy Hom vertrou wanneer Hy nie jou vyande veroordeel nie? Sal jy leer om 'n ander soort oorwinning lief te hê? Van palmtak tot as — van triomf tot waarheid — van skare tot dissipel Mag hierdie As-Woensdag en Lydenstyd ons help om nie net mense te wees wat “Hosanna!” roep wanneer dit maklik is nie, maar mense wat gevorm word deur die kruis. Na-leef teks: “22Die Jode vra wondertekens en die Grieke soek wysheid, 23maar ons verkondig Christus wat gekruisig is. Vir die Jode is dit ‘n aanstoot en vir die ander is dit onsin,  24maar vir dié wat deur God geroep is, Jode sowel as Grieke, is Christus die krag van God en die wysheid van God. 25Wat vir die wêreld die onsin van God is, is groter wysheid as die wysheid van mense, en wat vir die wêreld die swakheid van God is, is groter krag as die krag van mense.” 1 Korintiërs 1:22-25 Na-leef vrae Kan jy dit in jouself raaksien hoe jy soms Jesus en Sy weg, soos die skare, wil verander om by jou agenda en idees in te pas? Watter deel van Jesus se “Neem jou kruis op en volg my.” Is vir jou moeilik? Hoe sal jy dit eerlik in 'n kaalvoet-gebed verwoord?

Documentary film maker joins us to discuss Bigfoot evidence.

Japan's political scene is changing—from new parties rising in visibility to historic moments in national leadership—so the Krewe is bringing you a timely crash course. Political analyst Tobias Harris (Founder & Principal of Japan Foresight) joins the pod to break down the foundations of Japan's government system, how it compares to the U.S., and why voters view politics the way they do. We explore the major and emerging parties shaping the landscape, the issues driving debate today, and how international pressures and global events influence domestic policy. Tobias also sheds light on the media's role in shaping public perception and political accountability.------ About the Krewe ------The Krewe of Japan Podcast is a weekly episodic podcast sponsored by the Japan Society of New Orleans.

Hey Slackers, we're taking a fun detour this episode!Longtime listeners know I was a die-hard hair band and metal fan back in the '80s, which, let's be honest, made me a bit of a genre snob. Looking back, I realize I missed out on a ton of incredible music from that decade.Inspired by my son's request for a fresh playlist, I decided to step outside my usual rock, metal, punk, and emo comfort zone. Instead, I dove into the vibrant world of synth-pop, new wave, EDM, and alt-rock, curating a collection of tracks spanning 1980 to 1989. These are songs that lit up the charts or defined the underground scene—definitely not my typical picks!From the moody brilliance of Joy Division to the raw energy of the Pixies, I've crafted what I'm calling an "Offbeat '80s" playlist. But I need your help to make it even better! Early Gen Xers, 120 Minutes devotees, and alternative music lovers—hit me up with your must-have tracks to round out this out. What gems am I missing? Let's build this playlist together!

“There were kind of always like two simultaneous stories happening with my coming out. One was the realization and breaking through some of that denial and repression, seeing kind of what was right there in front of me, and I gave that story to Imogen.” – Becky AlbertalliWhat if there were two stories running through your life: the one you're telling the world, and the one you haven't even admitted to yourself? That's the kind of truth Becky Albertalli explores in her writing, and that she's lived in her own life. Becky is the bestselling author of Simon vs. the Homo Sapiens Agenda, Leah on the Offbeat, Imogen, Obviously, and many more. Her books capture the awkward, earnest, messy work of figuring out who you are–and remind us that coming out, growing up, and becoming yourself rarely happen all at once. In this episode, Becky opens up about growing up and fitting (or not fitting) in a conservative suburb, finding refuge in theater, and The Babysitters Club. She also reflects on how writing helped her work through parts of herself she hadn't yet named, discusses why queer-coming-of-age stories still matter, and reminds us of the power of Rent. ***For her reading challenge, Queer Coming of Age Stories, Becky has curated a list packed with queer stories, identity shifts, big feelings, and characters trying to make sense of themselves, one awkward moment at a time.Peruse selected titles and Becky's complete reading challenge for free at thereadingculturepod.com/becky-albertalli.This week's Beanstack Featured Librarian is Kelly Shelton, an elementary librarian for Garland ISD in Garland, Texas. She's been an educator for 26 years, and in the library for nearly a decade.

In “Off Beat,” Pastor Robert Madu reminds us that God has a rhythm and it includes rest. Drawing from Exodus 16, he shares that the Sabbath isn't just a necessary break but an act of trust in God's provision. Once you recognize God's beat, it's your responsibility to get in sync. This happens by realizing rest isn't a reward, its a gift from God that's available now. Thank you for partnering with Social Dallas!

Reading projects take all shapes and sizes, and today's guest has set a goal to read all the Women's Prize for Fiction shortlists and winners. Today, Anne is talking books with Kathryn, who lives on the island of Okinawa, Japan, with her military husband and energetic golden retriever. Kathryn works for a nonprofit and spends her leisure time reading, knitting, or walking on the beach close to their home. Since Kathryn's project is an ambitious one, she's come up with a strategy of reading one year at a time, though not necessarily in chronological order. Today she and Anne talk about which years or titles she may want to bump to the top of her read-next list. They also touch on reading project fatigue and ways Kathryn can truly enjoy the process of reaching her reading goal. Find the list of titles mentioned today and share your reading and project recommendations for Kathryn by leaving a comment over at whatshouldireadnextpodcast.com/476. Our 2025 Summer Reading Guide is nearly here: we'll be gathering on May 15th for our live unboxing party.
